9. Marine Street & Whispering Sands Beach

Marine Street Beach is located at the base of Marine Street and is a wide, white sand beach that rests between two rock reef points, Little Point, on the south and Horseshoe, on the north. Because of the reefs just offshore, this beach is excellent for experienced board and body surfers and is the home of the Whomp, an extreme shore break. Clean and sandy, it makes a good spot for sunbathing, swimming, and diving. There are fire rings, but no restrooms. The northern end of the beach is sometimes referred to as Whispering Sands Beach. Lifeguards patrol in the summer and on some weekends in the spring and fall. Because this beach is located in a residential neighborhood, parking is extremely limited.
